The laborers at Lillon Fabrics are paid on a daily-wage basis. When the employee union announces a strike that involves cessation of work, one of the employees, Lina, is hesitant to participate, as it would mean her employer withholding her pay. Which of the following is true of this case?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lina is not obligated to participate in the strike and can continue to work even if others stop working. Her employer is only obligated to pay her for the work that she does, and thus, can withhold her pay if she chooses to participate in the strike. It is not mandatory for all employees to participate in union activities. Lina also does not need to find a replacement employee before joining the strike as it is not her responsibility to ensure that the company continues to function during the strike.
